    2026 Santacruz Bullit Owners - Setup - Tricks - Discussion

    I live in Texas where the summers are HOT! I hate backpcks or fanny packs. I want to install a Nalgene 32 oz bottle and holder. It fits, but the resevoir hits when the suspension compresses. Can you flip the Float X2 upside down with out any negative effects? This would allow me to run the...

    If you get the black color, yes. It’s a beautiful color but it shows everything. I live in a very rocky area and 50 miles on the bike its already showing a few chips on the rear triangle. I had a few pieces of gloss left from another frame. I used a piece as a trial run before I ordered a set...

    Mine was 1 month from the time of order. I did have to settle for the black color as the matte turquoise would have meant a 3 month wait.

    License and insaurance to ride emtb

    Not surprising considering it’s one of the worst states for heavy handed control of its residents. I have relatives that live there. Every time I visit I’m thankful I don’t live there. My biggest fear is that this chase for more power and Class 1 bikes that can be turned to Class 3 (that would...

    I finally got my rear wheel replaced. The hub was bad. All good with the new one. My question is about the motor settings. I was looking forward to riding one of the newer motors. So far it has been disappointing. The motor rattle from the Shimano is gone, but the very noticeable resistance at...

    Thanks for the information. The bike supplier decided to stand behind the wheels. They are sending a complete set and paying for the return of the problem wheels. I am going to make sure there is a minimum of grease before I put them on the bike.

    I’ve had nothing but good experience with DT hubs, so this is surprising. The place I bought the bike from is giving me some kickback on the warranty, hinting that I took the hub apart and caused the problem. If they don’t make it right I’m going to post my experience and the name of the company...

    I have 2 little 3-4 mile rides on my Bullit CC to dial in the suspension. Yesterday on a little ledgy climb the engagement gears in the DT Swiss DEG 350 hub went south. I took the hub apart and the teeth are partially stripped so the hub won‘t stay engaged when you put the power to the cranks. I...

    First ride on the new Bullit today. Now begins the fiddling with suspension settings. I’m fairly ignorant about what the hi/lo progression chip does. Does the low setting provide a plusher feel?

    Just bought the CC model after selling all my other bikes. Any of you have enough time on the low and high settings to provide any feedback on which you prefer and why?

    Getting ready to pull the trigger on a M Bullit. I read somewhere the CC model deraillure is wired into the main battery and doesn’t require rhe Sram battery. Anyone know if this is true?

    Decisions, decisions...

    I agree with others here. I have owned 3 shimano motor bikes, 1 e7000 and 2 e8000, and have a Kenevo SL with zero motor issues. I ride my bikes a lot and don’t baby them. No motor problems on any of the motors. My brother still owns the e7000 motor bike and no problems for him either. One of the...

    2023 Orbea Wild paint/quality issues

    I was seriously considering a 2023 Wild. I think I will pass after reading this thread. In addition, where I live, the local Orbea dealer said they are less than thrilled with the service and communication from Orbea.
